Stupid question from this American

[KelNottAt]

What does mp stand for?

I think I've seen it used for Gordon Brown, but wouldn't he be a PM, as in Prime Minister (that is, not mp)? And, I've also seen it used for members of Parlaiment.

Thanks.

Member of Parliament - he's still a member although he's prime minister too.
